The Travis Marina Bar (aka Presidio Yacht Club) at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge in Sausalito has the best views in Marin. They have an upstairs bar run by Travis Air Force base open to the public Thursday thru Sunday. Frequently they have live music on those nights.

Marin County January sales for 2016 were up 5.4% over January 2015 sales. The question I have been asked the most since the beginning of the year is "how is the decline in the stock market affe
